Steve Daking, back in 2006, brought a Pool table into the studio.<\/p>\n<p>It was part of his show, \u201cThe Pool Guy\u201d where he did a cabaret act of trick shots and audience interaction \u2013 a show he had performed just once before coming up to Edinburgh. That\u2019s the spirit of the Fringe, and that\u2019s what I wanted to highlight in this Best of The Fringe retrospective.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>The Best of The Fringe Podcast: Steve Daking, The Pool Guy<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Steve Daking (<\/strong><\/em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.stevedaking.com\"><em><strong>www.stevedaking.com<\/strong><\/em><\/a><em><strong>)<\/strong>         <br \/>The Pool Guy<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>First broadcast <a href=\"http:\/\/edinburghfringe.thepodcastnetwork.com\/2006\/08\/10\/the-edinburgh-fringe-2006-podcast-06-celebrity-potting\/\">August 10th 2006<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>It\u2019s not long now till the Fringe kicks off.
